Guild Activities - Dawn Minenna, Michele Slaughter & Janette Velardi



Guild Programs take place at the General meeting. Guild programs begin at 7:30 PM. Beginning at 5:00 PM the meeting room is typically open and is available for your use to work on your own projects or comfort quilts. We generally have an experienced quilter available to help you with any questions or problems you may have.


Sign up for a workshop at the guild meeting or by sending an email to the Workshop coordinator at quilter@smithtownstitchers.com. Please put "Workshop" in the subject line.

Eco-Printing On Fabric and Paper

"In this class students will create a sustainably hand-dyed scarf and one page book. Eco-printing employs the use of botanical material and metal objects as the design elements. Participants will learn how coax the color and shape of their design into the fabric. Each student will take home their very own one-of-a-kind eco printed silk scarf and a handmade book." ​
